... because of all the post-visit photo processing that happens afterwards!

I saw some pretty neat Langes the other day, especially the new version of the 1815 Up/Down. Here we go!

LOVE the new 1815 Up/Down! Folks who have followed Lange for awhile may recall that the original 1815 Up/Down never got tons of attention. These newer ones seem to attract more attention from , though I can't really figure out why, because they're not hugely different (IMHO, at least) from the 1815 Up/Down of a decade ago. Maybe it's just that I took the old one for granted and didn't realize how much I missed it from the Lange lineup until after it was gone. Here's WG on the left, YG on the right:

The requisite movement pic (poor photo, I know):

Some of my favorites, including a Grande Lange 1 with an interesting "Quality Control" sticker that I've never seen before. I'm not sure if Lange now uses this sticker in worldwide markets or just in the US (was it applied in Germany, or at Lange's US/Richemont distribution center in Texas?).

Fun with white metals (3 in PT, plus a white gold 1815 Up/Down)!. Notice the size difference between the Zeitwerk Striking Time (ZW ST) and the others:
